According to a new book out from Steven Rattner, Rahm Emanuel
once said "F&^K the UAW" during the auto bailout
negotiations, probably in reference to some demand they made
during the heady days that was getting in the way of a smooth
operation. The detail was noted by
The Huffington Post (via Jalopnik).

And apparently Obama once said: "Why can't they make a Corolla?"
referring to American automakers.

So basically The White House hates unions and thinks Japan's cars
are better. Got it.
